Where it came from
The Knight of Stromgald was originally introduced in the 1995 Magic: The Gathering expansion set Ice Age. This specific version originates from the 1997 World Championship Decks, a product line released by Wizards of the Coast to replicate the exact card lists used by the top eight finishers at that year's World Championship in Seattle. These decks were intended to offer players a way to own and play with competitive-level strategies, featuring gold-bordered backs to distinguish them from standard tournament-legal cards.
The card features artwork by Mark Poole, a prolific early contributor to the game whose style is defined by a classic fantasy aesthetic. The Knight of Stromgald depicts a member of the Order of the Ebon Hand, a faction central to the lore of the Ice Age setting. The design was praised for its utility in black-aligned aggressive decks, specifically due to its ability to gain first strike and protection from white, making it a persistent threat in the fast-paced gameplay that characterized mid-nineties Magic tournaments.
